Inadvertently bumped into curbing while making a turn. Side wall of left front tire pierced, and plastic bumper moved. Bumper easily snapped back into place, tire replaced, and alignment checked. No damage except that seat belt failed in fully extended position after actuation with sudden stopping. Honda refused to honor warranty despite vehicle with less than 10,000 miles and two months old. Car is 2007 Honda Civic hybrid. In small claims court Honda argued successfully that the seat belt system functioned per design; that a "pre-tensioning system" is part of the design and is intended to prevent premature activation of air bag. I contend that any system that is designed to malfunction to prevent actuation of another system defies good design practice. I am a small person (135 lbs. ) and the abrupt stop occurred at low speed. The impulse of the stop should not have been sufficient to cause failure of the system.

My 17 year old son was in a one car accident Monday morning. He was driving a 2000 Honda Civic lx. He was traveling east bound on I-30. Time of the accident was around 7 am. The car was on cruise control at 70 mph. He apparently dozed off and woke up in the median. Scared to death. He came back up on the interstate. He thought he was putting the brakes on but said he was probably really giving it gas. He spun around a couple of times on the interstate and crashed head on into a guard rail. Fortunately he is ok. He said he had to be going 40-50 mph when he hit the guard rail. My question is. When scott hit the guard rail he went forward. The seat belt did not tighten up. He hit the steering wheel and came back when the seat belt finally tightened up. There was no deployment of the air bag since it was a front impact crash at over 40 mph, should the airbags have went off. The place where the car is thinks that it is totaled. Geico looked at it, who is my insurance agent and said it would cost around $4300 to fix it. Thanks for your help in this matter.
